2. Maximize vendor testing and verification
Telescope AIV Summary
Maximize vendor testing and verification
Work with contractors on Factory Acceptance Tests and On-Site Acceptance Tests
Include Handling and Safety Hazard from the start to ensure safe and efficient AIV
Surrogate masses and Handling procedures verified
Rely on Intimate knowledge of Telescope subsystem designs for faster AIV
Fully integrated AIV Team
Optimize overlap between sequenced activities to avoid schedule conflicts
Regular reviews to keep track of construction progress
Demonstrate most telescope performances before commissioning
Coordination with commissioning and operations

4. Robust AIV Sequence in Phase with Subsystem Delivery
Three Major Phases Organized for efficient and Safe integration and test:
Phase 1 (P1): Dome/Mount/Coating Plant (“Heavy Construction”)
Phase 2 (P2): Mirror Coating and Mirror Assemblies Integration
Phase 3 (P3): Alignment and Testing
Phase 1 (P1) ~2years until end of 2018
Phase 2 (P2) ~1year until April 2019
Phase 3 (P3) ~6 months until Sept 2019

5. Telescope AIV is Ramping Up
AIV sequence has started with preparation of PFlow platform lift tower installation on the summit
AIV Equipment is being selected and purchased
AIV Integration instrumentation is being designed and contracted
AIV team is being consolidated
AIV sequence is being updated
Example of Assembled Frame
Example of Crane being investigated
Filter exchanger for commissioning camera
PFlow platform lift tower

6. PFlow Tower Installation Procedure
Work with Platform Lift vendor PFlow to define tower installation procedure on site
Work with subcontractor to install tower and to verify installation

7. In the Process of Building Telescope AIV Team
Build core AIV team in Chile that will continue during commissioning and operations
Include as much as possible current team members into AIV team
